Reply to "What should I look for in a good baseball showcase?"

TR and Jerry;

Thank you for the kind words. When I started the Area Code games in 1987 with the support of professional baseball, I never realize that there would be the multitude of this style of baseball events.

My reasons were simple.
1. To select players to compete against the National Team of Japan and Korea and Australia.

2. To show our American players that need to "work harder" or they cannot compete in the World of International Baseball.

During our 25 years in International Baseball our players have played against 45 players who appeared in the recent "World Games". Now we are placing our American players in the Australian Goodwill Series with wood bats to play 12 games
in 15 days next December.

Players and parents need to ask questions as to
the objective of the "showcase", the total cost, the names of college coaches who have attended
previous events. When I visit SSU #2 ranked Division 2 games I noticed a increasing # of players who have transfered from Division 1 schools. Why?

TR and PG you rate players; do they listen?

Keep up your good work and best wishes and good health for 2008.

Bob
